The evil that man do lives after him. It is wrong for a former armed rubber now Arch Bishop to divorce his wife for a beautiful American lady. I will blame those paying tithes and offering to this arrogant Duncan who disrespect African women but wants African youth to respect him. Duncan will continue to rub ignorant chruch members and tell them that they are not his co-equal becos he feeds the orphans!!!!

Duncan, respect comes only when the elderly respects themselves and not when the elder keep disrespecting the very people who made them rich? If this Duncan guy does not check his utterances, all the church members will stop as they become enlighten and wise up. Until Duncan goes for his dumbed former wife, the youth of Ghana will never respect him--he can arrogate all the clergy titles to himself, but no respect

Indeed, it's not only amazing for this grown man to be constantly talking TRASH and nonsense, but I also think that he might have gotten to end of his damn wits—tired, confused, washed out & useless!!

Mr. Duncan, we no longer live in the 16th century, but the 21st century and that's why "your ass is making truckloads of money. The culture is constantly changing. “Your tantrums here are directed at your own critics from your DUMB-ASS comments and solution for the falling dollar. Where the hell do you live or coming from??

You think you're an elder so even educated Ghanaians, bankers, government officials, etc., need not question your "stupid solution for the falling Cedi”, which should be solved by the BoG and the government through MONETARY & MACROECONOMIC policies and not fasting and praying, you dumb ass Negro!! How DUMB could you be and expect us to say Amen to your foolishness, because you're and elder? These foolish solutions wouldn’t get Ghana anywhere, so shut the F—K up!!

Now, since you've come out again, I will suggest to you (Mr. Duncan) that as in the very Bible you use daily states: "unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and unto God what is God's." So SIT YOUR FAT ASS IN YOUR CHURCH and preach your garbage and let bankers, economists and the BoG solve the financial problems of the country. And, remember, the more you say stuff, the worse your reputation suffers—so ZIP it and eat your bucket full of banku and okra soup.

If you know deeper life teaches well, do well and go to church yourself and when you do you won't be on this forum pointing the way to someone who knows better than you do. Sure deeper life is a good church but do you even go to church? what does the bible speak about dealing with the elderly. Surely you are courting the wrath of God and may you be denied of mercy in the day of your calamity because of your pride, arrogance and disrespct. Read the lords prayer mr. self righteous and see what it says: forgive our tresspasses as we forgive those who tresspass against us. Since you think archbishop is a tresspasser and you never forgave him in his tresspass may your trespass never ever be blotted before God. May your children carry over the curse of your foolishness for 70 generations

Solo, apart from the God Almighty cursing you and your children and children's generations with the curse of Egyptians in the days of Moses because you have chosen to curse an uncurseable child of God, may the 77 gods of the cost tribe of Ghana curse you Solo until you rot life in your body. May Antoa Nsuo Nyamaa, Apapa and Tigari kill you in a dirty accident before the end of 2014 and extend same curse to your future generations. I will send schnapps and eggs to Antoa Nyamaa next month when I come to Ghana for you speedy destruction, you have bitten what you can not chew.

look at the dailies and listen to the news, watch posters on walls and you would see,read and hear " what a shock' young men dying like flies. The consequence of disrespect and dishonour is premature death and poverty and this is exactly what we see in Ghana. no reverence for men of God, disrespect for the elderly etc are part of the curse of the land. Most of the people commenting here go to church and what do they hear or read. Is this the way to go when a noble man of God speaks on an issue of this sort we castigate him this way. I recall in 2008 during the election where we not the same people calling for these men to speak. How hypocritical. Are we saying people like the Archbishop should be gagged. Can any of you commenting here speak to your parents the way you are speaking here? drunkards, homosexuals and infidels calling a man of God " SHIT" I am petrified and know if you guys dont repent you would all die yound rot in hell. That is not God's will for you so please humble yourselves and plead for mercy for your life.

It is really sad that, some Christians for that matter some Ghanaian have lost the respect we have for elders. As a Christian I have stayed with the Muslim community, and they have never criticized any Christian for praying. We need to learn from them.
If the Bible tells us in Proverbs 16:3 to commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. What is wrong with praying for our currency? And from the John 15:5 says "I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, because apart from me you can accomplish nothing". If we as Christians can accomplish nothing without Him, what is wrong with praying?
When the economy of the United State went bad, ministers were invited to the White House to pray for the economy. If we are not praying, let’s stop our disrespecting the elderly.

Waiting for what? When you cant even identify yourself with a real name, hiding behind characters. Look who is calling for bravery and Research. Dumbo, Kaytsre means last born in Akan and has no specific spelling depending on ethnicity. Only a fool would go looking for the meaning of African names in western resources. All this shows how indoctrinated you are in the white mans culture with very little knowlege of yours. Wake up from your neo-colonial slumber! How much of African genology can even be traced through western resources?? Or you think the white Man cares so much about Africans to be tracing our roots for us. Its time for we Africans to embrace our own and stop seeking validation from the west. So the fact that you googled Kaytsre and the white man didnt tell you where it is from, youve concluded its not african because he said so. Slave mentality!

Ghanaians have lost the culture of respecting the elderly because that is what the charismatism Duncan williams and co brought has taught the childen of the country. Elderly is the society are always accused of being witches and wizards to the extent that they are tortured by the believers in that philosophy. Duncan Williams should know that respect is a two-way affair. You receive when you give it. You don't command it. You must watch your words and be an inspiration to the youngsters.

How do you do it at your age?" He answered, "You've got to keep that old motor running." The following year she gave birth again. The same nurse said, "You really are amazing. How do you do it?" He again said, "You've got to keep the old motor running." The same thing happened the next year. The nurse said, "You must be quite a man." He responded, "You've got to keep that old motor running."

what has Duncan Williams achieved that he is going around talking of achievements? if he thinks making money to church is an achievement, then a degree or any other thing someone is doing is equally an achievement.

And it is not elderly to think that one is above criticism. it is rather criminal to think that way

The new African and ghanaiab for that matter is fearless, youthful and ready to challenge the status quo, thats why it looks like Duncan williams of all people are facing so much oposition. We all grew up listening to thier vague professies of prosperity and taking our money in promise of bigger returns from God. But after 30 years of those lies, we say enough is enough. God only blesses those willing to work hard for themselves, and no amount of prayers would make you pass your exams if you dont study. period

You may be an elderly, but you are also a big liar, and a con-man. In view of that, you do not deserve special respect reserved for decent elderly. Just keep your stinky mouth shut. Big asshole.

The cause for this bad culture is not far fetched. It began in 1979 when a GENERAL in the GHANA ARMED FORCES had to SALUTE a FLIGHT LIEUTENANT, A SARGEANT or a WARRANT OFFICER. When a HEAD OF STATE appears on TV, INSULTS and used gestures that are very disrespectful; like pointing a finger to the head above the ear indicating 'you are not sensible'. This was alien to our culture, but it did happened. Why will anyone be surprised when today, a minister appears on TV or RADIO and insult people? When a professor is made the deputy minister for not a relatively well educated person. In that era, respect for the elderly, women, the clergy and for each other went down drastically and has continue ever since.

In as much as I hundred percent agreed with you, Bishop, there are certain elderly people in this country who does not deserve even a respect that should go to the dogs. And one of such persons is the useless and the most idiot nonentity so called lawyer Okudzeto. I dare any reasonable Ghanaian to tell me why he thinks that idiot deserves any respect. The fact is that, the so called elderly people have lost their sense and are trying to damage this country and make life difficult for us, just like they have so far suceeded in doing in part. Have they ever spoken sense for us to give them respect? For as long as they do not respect themselves, they will equally not be respected.

Much as elders should be well respected, most Ghanaian elders are giving nonense advice either in Governemnt, at homes and even in churches. This is why Ghana and Africa is not moving foward.

The age-old Ghanaian culture of deferring to elders even when a child is right and the elder is wrong will surely disappeare because there were elders in Israel but others as young as David and Solomon were made Kings.
There mere fact you have gray hair or an elder does not make you wise and that is what is killing Africa and Ghana in particular. Under no circumstances should any elder be disrespected but look at Mr. Tweaaa DCE did, is that how an elderly person and moreover a DCE should behave in public. This is a foolish elder and he does not respect himself. If elders want respect they must comand respect, have respect for others and others will give them respect. Respect should not be automatic but earned.

There are so many men of God who are there for their pockets and money while their folk cannot even afford one good meal a day in Ghana.
Just as Jesus preached most of this so called men of Ghana should sell their property and use the money to feed the week ones in the society for it is only that they will see the Kingdom of Ghana.

I like the last sentence in the story above: "He suffered similar fate when he said non-achievers were not qualified to criticize him." In fact, when I listened to that boastful statement of Duncan Williams, I lost the little respect I had left for him.

I used to attend his church but I left when he divorced his wife and remarried. My fear was that if I did not leave, then my own marriage was under threat of divorce because the church's new outlook on divorce which they had then begun to teach to salve the conscience of the archbishop and to justify his conduct, could very well poison my wife's mind for our marriage.

Duncan William's recent condemnation of non-achievers shows that this man has no breaks on his temper and secondly, it also reveals a type of complex in him in the sense that he feels that people who are better educated are a threat to his complete dictatorship in his church.How can you say that the way people are looking at you whilst you are preaching means that they think they are better than you and hence you have to remind them of your high achievements to let them know that even with their good education, they are nothing before you. Why don't you rather pray for God to touch their hearts and melt their hearts so that their faith will increase for them to believe. I am glad I saw that this man cannot be a worthy spiritual leader for me and hence I left. I feel sorry for those who continue to troup there every week to be disrespected, ill-treated and fleeced off in the name of the gospel.

Does it mean that at the time he was insulting financially struggling people in his church, there were no well educated elders in his church who are struggling financially? If there were well educated but financially struggling elderly people in his church yet he could not hold the breaks when he condemned all financially struggling people, then he does not qualify to complain about respect for the elderly. Surely, he cannot be the oldest person in his church so if he had no qualms about mounting the podium to insult financially struggling elderly people who disagree with him, them he should spare us about the lack of respect by younger people who equally disrespect him because such young people are only copying from him, period!!!

I don't know what is happening to Ghana's big names in charismatism. From Mensa Otabil, to Duncan Williams and a host of them, we see behaviour and hear utterances that make the fetish priests and prietesses look far better at public relations!!!

There's something fundamentally wrong with the age-old tradition of the youth deferring to errring elders . It defies logic and neither is it based upon the principles of righteousness. This is one of the many reasons why is crumbling and retogressing instead of progressing. When you are wrong you are simply wrong. It has nothing to do with age. The tradition which gives us a sense of pride was unfortunately built on false precepts and concepts . We have failed as a people to hold our leaders, both political, religious and traditional, accountable for their stewardship. That's a recipe for failure and disaster. Some things must change if we want to progress as a people. We can't afford any more to maintain the status quo that has failed us.
